HFF arranges $6.1 million joint venture equity and $17.8 million financing for multi-housing community in suburban Denver, CO




Village at Coronado, Thornton, CO

IRVINE, CA – HFF announced today that it has arranged $17.79 million in financing and $6.1 million in joint venture equity for the Village at Coronado, a 390-unit multi-housing community in Thornton, Colorado.

David Bleiweiss
                HFF worked on behalf of the borrower, Investors Management Group (“IMG”), to arrange a joint venture equity partnership with KCB Real Estate Management (“KCB”), who contributed $6.1 million in equity. 

Additionally, on behalf of IMG and KCB, HFF secured a $17.8 million, 10-year, 3.85 percent fixed-rate loan through Freddie Mac’s (Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation) CME Program.

  The securitized loan will be serviced by HFF through its Freddie Mac Program Plus® Seller/Servicer program.  The debt and equity funding will allow IMG to further enhance the property beyond the renovations the previous owner completed from 2007 to 2008. 

Mark Erland
                The Village at Coronado is located at 1769 Coronado Parkway North approximately 10 miles north of Denver in the Adams County submarket.  Situated on 12.59 acres, the 94 percent leased property includes 390 units averaging 709 square feet each.  Community amenities include a fitness center, business center, three swimming pools, dog park and picnic areas.

                The HFF team representing IMG and KCB was led by managing director David Bleiweiss and director Mark Erland from HFF’s Orange County office and director Josh Simon from HFF’s Denver office.

Josh Simon
“The property was already outperforming projections at the close of escrow so with the combination of the new capital improvement plan and low interest, fixed-rate debt that HFF helped secure, this will be a very good investment for all parties involved, producing a strong cash-on-cash return from the start,” said Bleiweiss.

Investors Management Group, Inc. is a private investor firm located in Los Angeles, California.  Established in 1993, IMG specializes in multifamily investments nationwide.  The members of the IMG team have extensive experience in the origination, underwriting, acquisition, management and repositioning of multifamily properties.

KCB Real Estate Management is a boutique real estate fund manager that focuses on the “lower middle market” of assets that are too small for larger institutions to acquire.  Founded in 1986, KCB has a long track record of successful and prudent investing in a value-driven and tax-efficient manner.

Stuck In Neutral: Nearly 600 New South Beach Condos Still Unsold As Of Q1


  

South Beach, FL Night Scene

Peter Zalewski
MIAMI, FL -- For a third consecutive quarter, nearly 600 new condos in the popular South Beach neighborhood of Miami Beach remain unsold from the last South Florida real estate boom-and-bust cycle as sales of developer units transacted at a pace of about two per month in the first quarter of 2013, according to a new report from CondoVultures.com.

Buyers purchased more than five new South Beach condos from developers for a combined $7.7 million between January and March of 2013 as the average price per square foot increased 36 percent to nearly $1,015 compared to less than $750 per square foot in the fourth quarter of 2012, according to an analysis based on Miami-Dade County records.

As of March 31, 2013, the percentage of unsold developer units in the South Beach condo market is stuck at about 11 percent of the nearly 5,600 units created since 2003, according to an analysis based on the Condo Vultures® Official Condo Buyers Guide To South Beach™.

 "Greater Downtown Miami - the epicenter of the South Florida condo crash where more than 22,000 units were built during the last boom - now has about as many unsold developer units as South Beach," said Peter Zalewski, a principal with the Greater Downtown Miami-based real estate consultancy Condo Vultures® LLC.

"As developers in South Beach have maintained strong prices, many buyers have opted to compromise in their demands in order to get their deals done.

“Often times, this compromise means buyers are opting for existing units at a lower prices in South Beach or purchasing new developer units in competing markets such as Greater Downtown or Sunny Isles Beach.

The Tortoise, Not the Hare: U.S. Office Market Continues Slow but Steady Improvement


  
Michael Bull

 ATLANTA, GA– Its recovery may not be proceeding at a lightning-quick pace, but the U.S. office real estate market continued to show signs of noticeable improvement in the first quarter.

 That was one of the observations of a panel of experts on the most recent episode of the “Commercial Real Estate Show” radio program, hosted by Michael Bull of Bull Realty. The episode provided an enlightening look at the performance of the U.S. office sector in the first quarter.

Topics included vacancy rates, investment sales, the healthiest markets and tenant concessions.

Ryan Severino
 The national vacancy rate for the office sector fell 10 basis points in the first quarter, to 17.0 percent, from its mark at the end of 2012, said Ryan Severino, senior economist for Reis. Both asking and effective rents grew by about .7 percent in the first three months of the year, he added.

 “We’re more the tortoise than the hare here,” Severino said. “We’re kind of slow but steady.”

 The rest of 2013 will produce much of the same, Severino predicted. “I do expect to see continued improvement in the sector, but I don’t really expect to see any acceleration in that rate of improvement.”

Glen Marker
 Although the nation is producing new jobs each month, too few are office-using positions, and that dynamic is preventing the sector’s recovery from attaining a brisker pace, according to Severino.

 Over the next few years, metro areas characterized by “a high concentration of well-educated people and a fairly low cost of doing business should” produce a healthy pace of new jobs, said Glen Marker, a senior market advisor with PPR, a division of CoStar. He cited Nashville, Tenn., and Denver as two such markets.

 Tenants want smaller offices these days, and they often want the spaces they’re considering to be move-in ready, said Andrew Segal, the founder of Boxer Property, which owns office space across the country.

Andrew Segal
 “We’re definitely seeing more open [floorplans],” Segal said. “There’s also a trend of adopting some of the looks from California. People are less interested in ceiling tiles and carpet and more interested in exposed ductwork and concrete floors.”

 As for investment opportunities, the amount of distressed properties available for relatively low prices is beginning to decline, said David Wheeler, executive vice president of acquisitions for Hartman Income REIT.

David Wheeler
 “We did see a fair amount of distressed sales over the last two to three years, but that is dwindling, slowly but surely,” Wheeler said. “We do expect that to continue to play out with the level of CMBS loans coming up for expiration over the next couple of years … It’s going to dwindle, but it will still be in the market for another couple of years.”

 The entire episode on the U.S. office market is available for download at www.CREshow.com. The next “Commercial Real Estate Show” will be available May 2 and will examine the U.S. retail market.

Marcus & Millichap Sells 109-Room Hampton Inn & Suites in Ocala, FL for $5.8 Million


  

Hampton Inn & Suites, Ocala, FL

 OCALA, FL – Marcus & Millichap Real Estate Investment Services, the nation’s largest real estate investment services firm, has announced the sale of Hampton Inn & Suites, a 109-room hotel located in Ocala, FL. The asset commanded a sales price of $5,800,000 representing $53,211 per room.

Jonathan
 Gerszberg
Ahmed Kabani, Senior Associate and an Associate Director with Marcus & Millichap’s National Hospitality Group, and Jonathan Gerszberg, Associate, both from Marcus & Millichap’s Miami office, had the exclusive listing to market the property on behalf of the seller, a Miami bank/financial institution. 

“The asset generated immediate investment interest because of its newer construction (2008), excellent visibility from I-75 and close proximity to golf courses and state parks.  The buyer had to compete against 10 other offers, and ultimately closed with a hard day one offer,” says Kabani.

The buyer, a limited liability company from Michigan, was secured and represented by David M. Greenberg, Vice President Investments and Senior Director of Marcus & Millichap’s National Hospitality Group from the firm’s Ft. Lauderdale office.

Ahmed Kabani
“This acquisition is an excellent, strategic and significantly below replacement cost deal with plenty of upside.  This is the first time this buyer has owned a hotel in Florida.  Based on Florida’s positive hotel operating trends and diverse mix of corporate and leisure business generators, Florida is back on out-of-area investors’ radar screens.  We expect 2013 to be a record year for hotel transactions,” says Greenberg.

Hampton Inn & Suites is a 109-room hotel located directly off Interstate 75 on Highway 484 and just minutes from Ocala's Florida Horse Park.  Large trailer parking is available for guests, making the hotel ideal for those visiting the Park. There are also several championship golf courses within 10 minutes of the property. Hampton Inn & Suites is located at 2075 Southwest Highway 484 in Ocala, FL.

Greystone Originates Bridge Loans Totaling $28 Million for Two Senior Apartment Communities in New York and Georgia



Betsy Vartanian


New York, NY  – Greystone, a leading national provider of multifamily and healthcare mortgage loans, today announced that it has provided a total of $28 million in bridge loan financing to United Group of Companies Inc., for two market rate senior apartment communities located in New York and Georgia.

The loans were originated by Donny Rosenberg, a Managing Director in Greystone’s multifamily lending group, in conjunction with Steve Germano, Managing Director of Greystone’s Portfolio Lending Group.

Michael Uccellini
 Schuyler Commons in New York and The Lodge at BridgeMill in Georgia received $28 million of loan proceeds through Greystone’s bridge loan program.

Both properties received attractive terms with a new maturity allowing the borrower to execute their business plan.

 “The United Group had a beneficial experience working with Greystone to close a complicated financial restructuring,” said Michael Uccellini, President and CEO of United Group.

 “The talented and professional Greystone team was responsive, accommodating and brought great value in closing the financing transaction we required. This valued business relationship is strongly recommended to the development community and will certainly be utilized in the future, as we have other financing opportunities identified.”



                                  Schuyler Commons, New York

Greystone’s extensive bridge financing experience enabled the team to work through the complexities of age-restricted housing quickly, and successfully close the loans for the two properties. The loan proceeds were used to refinance existing debt. Greystone will work with United Group of Companies to provide long-term financing prior to the maturity of the bridge loan.

The Lodge at BridgeMill
Canton, GA
 “Borrowers facing impending loan maturity continue to look to Greystone for their bridge financing needs,” said Betsy Vartanian, Head of Greystone’s FHA business.

“Our clients often need to retire existing debt obligations quickly to avoid pending loan maturity but also want to secure long term financing with favorable loan terms.

“Greystone is able to offer bridge financing quickly while simultaneously structuring the optimal long term financing solution that best addresses the borrower’s needs and objectives. 

"Our creativity and ability to move quickly coupled with our proven success in delivering permanent financing, often FHA insured, allow us to provide clients with the best possible interim solution as they plan their permanent capital structure over a lengthier period of time.”

Marcus & Millichap Capital Corp. Arranges $5.7 Million 100 Percent Cash-Out Multifamily Refinance in Nashville, TN




                                      184-Unit Apartment Community in Nashville, TN
  
NASHVILLE, TN– Marcus & Millichap Capital Corporation (MMCC) has arranged $5,687,000 in debt for a 184-unit multifamily community in Nashville.

John Banas
Kristopher Wood and John Banas, both directors in MMCC’s Philadelphia office, arranged the loan.

“The challenge in this transaction was finding an agency lender willing to provide a cash-out refinance on an asset that had been purchased as a distressed property in 2011,” says Wood. “Our borrowers were interested in fixed-rate debt, as the operations and property improvements are complete. The 100 percent cash-out was to repay investors and stabilize cash flow for a long-term hold,” adds Wood.

Kristopher Wood
“Through our long-term lender relationships, we were able to deliver loan terms that were significantly better than market, exactly what our client was looking for,” Banas concludes.

The 10-year loan amortizes over 30 years at 4.02 percent. The LTV is 75 percent.
